My normal weekday goes like this. I get off work at 5pm, reach home by 7pm, eat supper then go to bed three hours after.
Is 7pm too late for supper? I feel like it is. The number of hours between supper and bedtime is not enough for my body to fully digest everything. Besides [...]

Understanding Coffee
If given a choice between coffee and tea, I’d take tea any day. Most days, I try to avoid deciding what to order from the long list of coffee drinks available. And If really really have to, I stick with my usual order – Caramel Macchiato. I’ve enjoyed drinking it the first time around and [...]

Dairy Queen Treat
Me and my sister spent almost half of yesterday shopping at Robinson’s Malate. While there, we treated ourselves to a nice dinner and a cool treat afterwards at Dairy Queen. I didn’t want to completely get off the healthy track I’ve been in for the past weeks and since my sister was craving for an [...]

French Women Don’t Get Fat
It has been a while since I last bought myself a book. Not that I lost interest in reading over the past years, just didn’t have enough shelf space at home to store my collections.
French Women Don’t Get Fat by Mireille Guiliano is the first non-fiction book I’ve bought on how to have a healthy [...]

Attention to scales
Weight has always been one of the issues I’ve dealt with all my life. Lucky for me, I have been able to experience every body size frame imaginable in my twenty years of existence. That’s enough motivation for me not to fall back to the one hundred thirty pound frame that I used to be [...]
